I've always felt that if athletes at the USATF NC competed under the banner of their home state, it would garner a hell of a lot more attention from the media and sports fans in general. It's really hard finding a guy to root for if he's competing for Nike or Joe Bob's Athletics Club if you're a

Crystal Springs is a nice course. I've race it a couple times, and it's tough (first time I raced it I got stung in the head by a bee during warmups--that's a tough course). To my mind, the BEST cross country course I've ever run is located a little further North, at Lake Lagunitas in the shadow

I've done lots of runs, though no races at Crystal Springs. Having grown up on Long Island and raced at Sunken Meadow and Van Cortland, both GREAT courses, I would have loved to raced at CS. This is XC at its best, very hilly and windy, and easy to lose your competitors around a quick bend.
